It is interesting because i wondering if this was a game where he did things his way or he was compromised?

Away games you’re looking forward to next year (assuming we get relegated)

Millwall. Always good to chase them round Bermondsey. Bushwakers are Masters of hide and seek when the DEF come to town. -
Pretty much spot on. If we'd won six and lost one then everyone would be laughing about it, what a character etc. Because we're doing shit he's a welsh twat. I dont think he said anything particularly wrong yesterday but everyones jumping all over it again because he didn' say exactly what they want them to hear.

I think he simply isn’t very articulate but also enjoys his image. He’s not the polished, media trained, slick personality that the top managers are. He seems to quite like the image of being the Welsh mining village boy done good through graft, aggression and passion. He’s obviously not stupid and does know what he’s doing, the championship is still a very very tough league to do well in, you don’t survive if you haven’t got a clue. It’s not the sort of image the premier league wants these days and It’s a bit dated and a bit cringey at times but he seems to thrive on telling everyone his background. I’ve met a few people like that in business over the years, always going on about how well they’ve done despite growing up on a rough council estate, honestly no one cares.

I’ve never had much time for Semmens. He’s a marketing guy and whilst he’s very corporate and silver tongued never really seen a lot of substance in anything his says. He’s made some truly absurd comments in the past along with a general distain for the traditional fan base. He just seems like the sort of corporate, cliche ridden leader I’ve seen hundreds of times that is totally out of touch with Customer base. I find it incredible that people running a premier league football club come from a marketing background and Steele comes from an aviation background. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a large organisation run successfully by people with no industry experience, especially a unique thing like a football club where you have a very emotive and hardcore customer base to keep onside. Sadly they done a great job of damaging that. Ankersen im still undecided about. He has something about him but also seems to think he’s a genius. Nothing wrong with a bit of arrogance but he’s done little so far to match the talking. Brentford was a success but it’s one thing getting a club in the premier league quite another staying there and they seem to be doing rather well without him.

Jimmy Jay Morgan not to sign a pro contract at club!

Yeah probably didn’t fancy it, the melt. -

Me too 🤣🤣 It was a long time ago I was too pissed to remember, walked up to him whilst he was stood in a group at the end of the night and said “I don’t like you, you’re a cunt and if you’ve got anything to say about it I’ll see you outside” before I was dragged away. Monday at work the regional manager was in and I had to explain myself, they very sternly said I was an idiot but he was happy to put it down to drunken stupidity. So fair play to him, was a bit of legend at work for a while though. -

I called my managing director a cunt and offered him out once, people make mistakes when they're young and maybe a few beers in. -

Definite attitude problem. Why would you want life changing money in one the worlds best academies at one of Europes biggest clubs when you could stay with a declining club destined for relegation run by clown with a twat as a manager. -
oh great, like Lavia another good player who cant actually play that much
-
also arguably easier runs of games. Ralphs last 7 league games included 3 of the current top 4 Newcastle h Palace A Arsenal H Bournemouth A West Ham H Man City A Everton H Jones last 7 Liverpool A Brighton H Fulham A Forest H Everton A Villa H Brentford A

Semmens always went big on this club ethos being the pathway for young players. Guess when he let Rasmus buy the club that was his compromise,

5.3-2 Bree, Bednarek, Lyanco, Salisu, Djenepo Diallo JWP Ellyanousi Adams Armstrong Good solid lads, Janny B at the back, Lyancy there for his passion and get stuck in, Chedder and Djenny down the flanks, get it into Ads and let the good little un AdsA pick up the flick ons. Get stick in, dont mess about it with, get it forward early, get stuck in, aggression and passion wins matches not this fanny about with it. If it's in their area it aint in ours, get it in the mixer!
-
remember Pellegrino? He did the same with Kruger and Reed admitting that every time they thought about firing him he got a positive result. So we ended up being stuck with a lame duck manager for ages because he got one good result ever seven or so games.
-
Now Jones is doing it his way i expect us to be brilliant at defending the box, pressing, aggressive, all the things we've not been and i expect us to win comfortably
-
He at least has a decent goal scoring track record albeit in lesser leagues but then if was scoring a goal every other game in La Liga or Serie A he wouldnt be signing for us. Carillo was just a joke, the way the clowns on here tried to pretend he was a prolific goalscorer when he’s signed was hilarious. Got to give him a go and the other lad, can’t do any less than Armstrong and Elyanoussi
-
But people argued it wasn’t Ralph’s squad almost up to the point he got fired
-
It isn’t his squad though.
-
Only club this season to have sacked their manager and carried on getting crap results 🤣🤣
-
Five points from safety then….. we are fucked
-
Even if Leeds lose we still need 4 more points than them and Everton over the last 17 games. It doesn’t sound a lot but when we’ve been the worst team in the league by a mile over the last year or so it’s huge. No one can say we haven’t earned our relegation anyway
-
They aren’t really are they. We are down whatever Leeds do
